Bouquet Preservations and Pressed Flowers
Turn your bridal bouquet, memorial arrangement or event flowers into an heirloom, by letting us press, arrange and frame them for you. All of our full size frames are dried and arranged by us and then professionally framed by a local, woman-owned frame shop. The frames are exceptionally high quality and include conservation glass, which protects your flowers from damage from UV rays. The process of pressing, arranging and framing your flowers takes between 8-10 weeks from the date we receive your flowers.
We ask that you pre-book your wedding preservation at least one week before the event date so we can ensure we have the time blocked to preserve your bouquet. If your event is less than 7 days away or has already passed, we may still be able to help but there will be a $75 convenience fee. We can typically waive this fee for bereavement flowers.
Framing Options: Select from 5 different finishes for your frame (see the attached photo for options). You can choose to have a floating frame (two panels of glass with no matboard), or to have your flowers mounted on black or white mat board. For the 18x24 size frame, our framing expert friends recommend using matting, because glass of that size is extra fragile. Please note: the gold frame we offer has gold on the front and white/ivory on the sides. You can see pictures of the gold frame in the individual image below.
How to get the flowers to us: Immediately after your event, you will ship or deliver your flowers to our studio in Memphis, TN and we will get to work on pressing your flowers. The sooner the pressing process begins, the better the color and end result, so we don't waste any time pressing your flowers upon arrival. It is also a good idea to keep your flowers refrigerated and in water until you are able to drop or mail them off to us.
If you are shipping your flowers to us, we highly recommend that you use expedited shipping. When packaging your flowers, you should wrap the ends of the stems in damp paper towels or damp fabric, and then place a plastic bag around that. Use a rubber band to secure the plastic in place. You can use bubble wrap or packing paper around the stems of flowers to prevent the bouquet from moving around in the box during shipping. Our shipping address is 2294 Young Avenue, Memphis, TN 38104 if you need to estimate shipping costs.
